Bvlgari & MB&F Reimagine the Iconic Serpenti

Collaborations in watchmaking often bring together the creativity of a brand and its chosen partner, whether they be artists, athletes, or designers. However, it’s far rarer to see two well-known watchmaking powerhouses join forces. The partnership between Bvlgari and MB&F is a fascinating case, as both brands serve as creative forces in the industry with anything they put their hands on. 

Their latest collaboration, the Bvlgari x MB&F Serpenti, follows their 2021 partnership, which resulted in the MB&F x Bvlgari LM FlyingT Allegra launched at Dubai Watch Week. This time, the two brands reinterpret Bvlgari’s iconic Serpenti through the mechanical artistry of MB&F’s horological machines, merging biomorphic design with high-complication watchmaking in a way that only they can.

Carat

It’s percentage of pure gold in different gold alloys. It represents the purity on a scale of 24 units, where pure gold is represented as 24-carat gold. For example, 18-carat gold contains 18 units of pure gold and 6 units of other metals, making it 75% gold. 24-carat gold is considered pure gold. Carat is also used to measure the mass of gemstones and is not used to indicate their purity. One carat is equal to 200 milligrams.
